Patient's question:
The child is only 3 years old this year, and recently, it's unclear what's wrong. The child's throat is a bit swollen, and there's a bit of a taste inside. My friend saw it and said this isn't just a swollen throat, but likely swollen tonsils. What could be the reason for this? Desired assistance: How should a child with swollen tonsils be treated?Doctor's answer:
Swollen pediatric tonsils are recommended to be treated with anti-inflammatory therapy, and surgery is not advised. The tonsils are an autoimmune organ. Most children often develop tonsillitis after a cold. It is suggested to drink more water regularly. During intravenous fluid therapy, oral medication should also be taken to keep up with the treatment. Encourage the child to have frequent bowel movements and consume easily digestible, light foods. Avoid fried foods as much as possible, which can help improve the condition. Pay attention to preventing fever in daily life.
